Uncountable irredundant sets in nonseparable scattered C*-algebras / Uncountable irredundant sets in nonseparable scattered C*-algebrasHida, Clayton Suguio 05 July 2019 (has links)
Given a C*-algebra $\\A$, an irredundant set in $\\A$ is a subset $\\mathcal$ of $\\A$ such that no $a\\in \\mathcal$ belongs to the C*-subalgebra generated by $\\mathcal\\setminus\\{a\\}$. Every separable C*-algebra has only countable irredundant sets and we ask if every nonseparable C*-algebra has an uncountable irredundant set. For commutative C*-algebras, if $K$ is the Kunen line then $C(K)$ is a consistent example of a nonseparable commutative C*-algebra without uncountable irredundant sets. On the other hand, a result due to S. Todorcevic establishes that it is consistent with ZFC that every nonseparable C*-algebra of the form $C(K)$, for a compact 0-dimensional space $K$, has an uncountable irredundant set. By the method of forcing, we construct a nonseparable and noncommutative scattered C*-algebra $\\A$ without uncountable irredundant sets and with no nonseparable abelian subalgebras. On the other hand, we prove that it is consistent that every C*-subalgebra of $\\B(\\ell_2)$ of density continuum has an irredundant set of size continuum. / Given a C*-algebra $\\A$, an irredundant set in $\\A$ is a subset $\\mathcal$ of $\\A$ such that no $a\\in \\mathcal$ belongs to the C*-subalgebra generated by $\\mathcal\\setminus\\{a\\}$.
